On Sunday it was of to Wellington Quarry were 20,000 lived underground be for going over the top then on to Vimy Ridge the Canadian memory 30m high Vimy Ridge the Canadian trench system.
Before arriving at the Menin gate to be given the Honour to stand Guard over the wreath laying ceremony. To stand there at the head of our District watching my explorer scouts lower the flags as the last post was played had tears rolling down my face. And as they laid our wreath to the missing and fallen I know none of us will ever forget them or our weekend of rememberance. Here we were the Guard of Honour at the Ceremony on Remembrance Sunday flying and lowering of the flags, as the last post was played and then laying of a wreath. We Will Never Forget Andrew Andrew Martin ESL.
